God may exist, but science can explain the universe without the need for a creator.

Europe is so well gardened that it resembles a work of art, a scientific theory, a neat metaphysical system. Man has re-created Europe in his own image.

Any God I ever felt in church I brought in with me.

My message is that God is a good God.

Obedience to God is the pathway to the life you really want to live.

We must respect the other fellow’s religion, but only in the sense and to the extent that we respect his theory that his wife is beautiful and his children smart.

I remember how my mother would bring us to chapel on Sundays… and my father used to wait outside. One of the things that I picked up from my father and my mother was the sense that religion often gets in the way of God. For me, at least, it got in the way.

If the federal government had been around when the Creator was putting His hand to this state, Indiana wouldn’t be here. It’d still be waiting for an environmental impact statement.

I think if we didn’t contradict ourselves, it would be awfully boring. It would be tedious to be alive.

Helped are those who create anything at all, for they shall relive the thrill of their own conception and realize a partnership in the creation of the Universe that keeps them responsible and cheerful.

I give thanks to God and to all the people in the U.K. who have supported me over the years.

But if nothing but soul, or in soul mind, is qualified to count, it is impossible for there to be time unless there is soul, but only that of which time is an attribute, i.e. if change can exist without soul.

I think that man has a fundamental obligation to extract from himself and from the earth all that it can give; and this obligation is all the more imperative that we are absolutely ignorant of what limits – they may still be very distant – God has imposed on our natural understanding and power.

Science does not know its debt to imagination.

It now appears that the way the universe began can indeed be determined, using imaginary time.

Religion is something left over from the infancy of our intelligence, it will fade away as we adopt reason and science as our guidelines.

Anyone who is to find Christ must first find the church. How could anyone know where Christ is and what faith is in him unless he knew where his believers are?

The faith that stands on authority is not faith.

Where knowledge ends, religion begins.

Small amounts of philosophy lead to atheism, but larger amounts bring us back to God.

Indeed, the Lord has not forgotten! He has blessed us and others throughout the world with the Book of Mormon.

There is no chance and anarchy in the universe. All is system and gradation. Every god is there sitting in his sphere.

If you are part of a religion that very strongly insists that you believe then to decide not to do that is quite a big hurdle to jump over. You never forget the thought process you went through. It becomes part of your whole intellectual picture.

It is not scientifically possible to accurately predict the outcome of an action. To suggest otherwise runs contrary to historical experience and the nature of war.

There is more stupidity than hydrogen in the universe, and it has a longer shelf life.

Because my dad abused me, I was determined to never let a man tell me what to do. God clearly showed me that I needed to be a submissive wife if I wanted to be effective in ministry. The truth is, if we don’t learn to submit to authority, we won’t ever learn to submit to God.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I’m not sure about the former.

That I am not a member of any Christian church is true; but I have never denied the truth of the Scriptures, and I have never spoken with intentional disrespect of religion in general, or of any denomination of Christians in particular.

Time can behave like another direction in space under extreme conditions.

Faith means belief in something concerning which doubt is theoretically possible.

I do not concern myself with gods and spirits either good or evil nor do I serve any.

It is perfectly possible to live a very moral life without a belief in God, and I think it’s perfectly possible to live a life peppered with ill-doing and believe in God.

Great thoughts and a pure heart, that is what we should ask from God.

Religion can be the enemy of God. It’s often what happens when God, like Elvis, has left the building.

One science only will one genius fit; so vast is art, so narrow human wit.

It is the stars, The stars above us, govern our conditions.

The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not ‚Eureka!‘ but ‚That’s funny…‘

Nobody, as long as he moves about among the chaotic currents of life, is without trouble.

Like religion, politics, and family planning, cereal is not a topic to be brought up in public. It’s too controversial.

Before the throne of the Almighty, man will be judged not by his acts but by his intentions. For God alone reads our hearts.

God is absence. God is the solitude of man.

He who possesses art and science has religion; he who does not possess them, needs religion.

I’ve always been interested in science – one of my favourite books is James Watson’s ‚Molecular Biology of the Gene.‘

Science can lift people out of poverty and cure disease. That, in turn, will reduce civil unrest.

We see God face to face every hour, and know the savor of Nature.

I am an angel. I was sent here from God to heal.

Things are as they are. Looking out into it the universe at night, we make no comparisons between right and wrong stars, nor between well and badly arranged constellations.

The scab is a traitor to his God, his mother, and his class.

Our life of poverty is as necessary as the work itself. Only in heaven will we see how much we owe to the poor for helping us to love God better because of them.

If you believe in prayer at all, expect God to hear you. If you do not expect, you will not have. God will not hear you unless you believe He will hear you; but if you believe He will, He will be as good as your faith.

I’m just hoping that people understand that Islam is peace and not violence.

I was a very keen reader of science fiction, and during the time I was going to libraries, it was good, written by people who knew their science.

If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe.

If you look at the history of our country over the last 100 years, there have been periods where science and research have been celebrated. They were really kind of held up as heroes in society, which encouraged a generation of people to go into these fields.

To the man who reads ‚Scouting for Boys‘ superficially, there is a disappointing lack of religion in the book. But to him who tries it in practice, the basic religion underlying it soon becomes apparent.

All religions must be tolerated… for every man must get to heaven in his own way.

It doesn’t matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn’t matter how smart you are. If it doesn’t agree with experiment, it’s wrong.

I want to thank God, obviously for the health, for the talent He’s given me, for my family who supports me, for the things that basketball’s taught me on and off the court. For the people that I’ve been able to meet through the game of basketball.

Whatever universe a professor believes in must at any rate be a universe that lends itself to lengthy discourse. A universe definable in two sentences is something for which the professorial intellect has no use. No faith in anything of that cheap kind!

We account the Scriptures of God to be the most sublime philosophy.

Even if there is only one possible unified theory, it is just a set of rules and equations. What is it that breathes fire into the equations and makes a universe for them to describe?
